Grizzly's Bar

Well worth a look at this log cabin type bar come shop. The expertly hand crafted bar, seats, bears and Mr Grizzly cooking on the large fire pit outside, create an experience and atmosphere that is unique to Tignes. The log fires both in and outside only add to alpine atmosphere. Your mum will love it - well for one drink anyway - beware of the prices!!

It's popular during apres-ski to sit on the handcrafted wooden benches on the terrace around the large open fire; if it gets cold you can move inside the cosy and ornately decorated bar and warm up by the fire. Don't be put off by the ladies' clothing in the window - Mrs Grizzly looks after the shop at the front of the building. Open 10am til midnight.
